Wedding Tips, THE WHY & HOW

So I am sure your wondering, why I am publishing my own set of tips and how I know what I do. You may wonder, why am I not pointing you to famous wedding blogs or to wedding planning websites.. The answer is because I want you to get it from a local and real person. I want you to be able to feel like you could call me or email me asking questions and that your answer is coming real experience of a former bride and a wedding photographer.

Raul and I were married almost 6 years ago (can you believe it???!!). Our wedding had many untraditional and many traditional aspects. When I got married, I loved photography but was not in business, I had NO IDEA how to host a wedding or what was all involved. In fact after one wedding expo, I felt lost, unprepared and totally overwhelmed! Even turning to the wedding planning sites, seemed to make these feelings even worse. I had no idea how to choose a venue, how to decide on decorations, or where to start and I don't want you to have a similar experience. Thank goodness for my mom, she really helped me take it step by step, so like my mom, the purpose of these tips are to help you handle your wedding planning and making it as easy as possible.

As a wedding photographer, I have a different experience with assisting bride's and groom's with their plans, as well as being there to experience their plans throughout their wedding day. So as you can imagine, I have been to just a "few" weddings, roughly 60-70 since Raul and I started this business.

One of my biggest tips~ Take it one step at a time

One of my biggest tips to newly engaged couples, is to break down the huge tasks of wedding planning into small and simple tasks.. Yes you will have more on your to-do list but you will not feel as overwhelmed.

Next Week, I will continue with the Wedding Wednesday Tips!

I agree with you. Marriage is a holy sacrament. I believe that it should be well planned and prepared. It can only happen once in a lifetime for some people. That is why it should be very special and personal. I like the way you handle wedding events because you handle each one in a unique way.

There might some different approaches according to place or knowledge. Your skills depends on how you got an opportunity and where you have trained. Personal or professional training might distinguish between each other.
